From the product description, check product page for current description, price and availability:
- Convenient Design: Plug and play, easy to use.
- Support reading with Centigrade or Fahrenheit unit.
- Maximum output load: 1100W(110V).
- Dual Relay Output – Be able to connect with refrigeration and heating equipment at the same time.
- Dual Display Window – Be able to display measured temperature and set temperature at the same time.
Dual stage means that the ITC-308 can control both a heating and cooling device. Alternatively, it can control a heating or a cooling device. This controller displays in Fahrenheit or Celsius. Dual Display shows both measured and set temperature.
Use in conjunction with compatible heating and/or cooling devices (usually a freezer or a refrigerator) to help control fermentation or kegerator temperatures. This is a great controller! Check out my extensive Hands on Review of the ITC-308. That includes loads of information including a walk through of all settings.

I snagged one last night to have as a backup for my Johnson Controls A419 controller. I’ve wasted more money drinking at a bar than what this costs, so it was a worthwhile backup investment.
I ordered one as well, looks like a great way to control a fermentation chamber. Unfortunately with 1000W max it will not work to control a bucket heater for bringing/hold strike/sparge water up to temperature.
Too bad Anova is discontinuing their 1,000 Watt Sous Video Cooker. I got one, but it would be nice if they were still readily available for others. Really, really great that task.
I took a chance, at the price it’s too low not to at least try it out. Considering a single stage costs at least $75.
Of course! Why WOULDN’T this come out less than a week after I paid more for the pieces to finally build my own pathetic ITC-1000 temp controller box?
